On the other hand if we had sideloading, we could finally get a browser on iOS that isn’t just Safari reskinned.

Mayne then we would have PWAs that work the same way everywhere.

The existence of competition might even motivate Apple themselves to adopting new video codecs and image formats that weren’t invented inside of Apple Hq.

Go buy a different phone. No one is forcing you to support Apple, and if you already use Android, get off your high horse and stop screwing with a product I like and you don’t.

> Go buy a different phone.

The plaintiff here is a developer, not a fan of any specific device.

"Just don't develop for the phone, then."

Great, who's going to pay out the lost sales?

Also, assuming I "just don't buy an Apple device," I can [legally] develop an app on my Windows or Linux device?
